Summary

So, what is the solution to Afghanistan? We are joined today by retired Air Force Col. Dan Steiner, who explains that we have all the tools we need to succeed in a defined mission with air superiority. Unfortunately, thanks to political correctness, the military-industrial complex, and inter-branch rivalries within the military, we are left with a dumpster fire in Afghanistan, which is hurting our deterrent in other theaters. Dan believes that because our mission has been turned into an industry, it has left the president with a series of false choices. Key lesson? Never go to battle playing to your enemies’ strength; go to battle against his weaknesses. We own the skies but refuse to use that as a standing deterrent. Copyright Blaze Media All Rights Reserved  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
